lyrics
Into the quicksand we’re creeping low
Making midnight creep as the deal goes down
The ocean has widened and the moon has grown full
Lunatic with your blank check: the hammer will fall
None of these plans were the plans that I made
When the moon it is rising the sun it will fade
Drink champagne rivers before they run dry
Before they thicken and turn to blood before your eyes
The Master’s leaning down to dismantle the tower
We’ve been building in the darkening hours
The women will weep and the men they will mourn
The lions will be broken and the sheep will be shorn
I heard a baby crying and I heard my own voice
Bitter the lessons that come at this price
Standing in a quiet room, silence in the vacuum
Torn free from the energy, patient in the tomb
I was walking in the old town feeling dirty and low down
I looked into a mirror and my face made me frown
Left me feeling bluesy, empty and old somehow
And I wondered if I hadn’t been born at the wrong hour
I turned around a corner and you were standing there
I thought this is as good a place to end as anywhere
And if the deal goes down, well I’m glad I’ll be with you
We turned our faces from the fire and we went crawling on all fours, two by two
A hushed and low-lit EP from this Melbourne musician, where dreamlike melodies drift across a bed of tender guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
